Worldwide access exposes website operators and internet publishers to the possibility of being haled into courts around the globe. A business operating online must therefore account for the risk of being sued in a distant jurisdiction that may provide very different rights and responsibilities than the jurisdiction the business considers its “home.” The immediacy of this risk rises exponentially as businesses and individuals increasingly utilize “cloud computing” services in which data is stored on remote servers that could be located in any country in the world.2 This Article provides an overview of the risks facing businesses in the online space and a description of recent efforts by courts and regulators to diminish that risk—or at least make it more predictable.

  • Dynamics of Change in the US Air Transportation System
    2 Abstract The US Air Transportation System is currently facing a number of challenges including an increasing demand for travel and growing environmental requirements. In order to successfully meet future needs, the system will need to transition from its current state using a combination of technology, infrastructure, procedure, and policy changes. However, the complexities of the air transportation system make implementing changes a challenge. In particular, the multi-stakeholder nature of the system poses a significant barrier to transition. Historically, many changes in the air transportation system were driven by safety concerns and implemented following accidents which provided the momentum to overcome transition barriers. As a result of past changes, the system has become increasingly safe resulting in the emergence of new drivers for change. Security has emerged as a driver following the terrorist attacks of 9/11/2001 in the US and a number of system changes have since been implemented. Currently, capacity is one of the largest drivers of change. Addressing capacity issues requires solutions that can be accepted by stakeholders, and pass the necessary certification and approval requirements for implementation. The contribution of aviation to global greenhouse gas emissions is also becoming a significant driver for change in the system. The goal of this work is to understand how the air transportation system changes in response to safety, security, capacity, and environmental drivers for transition. In order to understand the dynamics of transition, historical cases of system change were studied. Twenty seven such cases have been analyzed to construct a feedback process model of transition and to explore specific change dynamics observed.

  • The Symbolic Assailant Revisited
    THE SYMBOLIC ASSAILANT REVISITED Jeannine Bell* Abstract The well-publicized deaths of several African Americans—Tamir Rice, Philando Castile and Alton Sterling among others—at the hands of police stem from tragic interactions predicated upon well-understood practices that police scholars have been analyzing since the 1950s. The symbolic assailant, a construct created by police scholar Jerome Skolnick in the mid-1960s to identify persons whose behavior and characteristics the police view as threatening is especially relevant to contemporary policing. This Article explores the societal roots of the creation of a Black symbolic assailant in contemporary American policing. The construction of African American men as symbolic assailants is one of the most important factors characterizing police interaction with African American males. This is not a one size fits all approach to blackness. As the Article discusses, police officers’ treatment of African American women is also fraught, but markedly different. I argue that current strategies for ending police violence do not sufficiently address the prominence of the symbolic assailant in proactive policing strategies. This Article suggests an unusual solution to commonly understood mechanisms of addressing police violence. Based on my experience with police who had productive relationships with crime victims of color, I suggest a reorientation of policing practices predicated on a more reactive model of policing. * Richard S.

  • New York Times
    The New York Times July 15, 2013 An Economy on the Mend Lifts Corporate Travel By Joe Sharkey IdeaWorksCompany contributed information to this article - - see italics. BUSINESS travelers in the United States will spend about $273.3 billion on the road in 2013, a 4.3 percent increase over last year and a reflection of stronger growth in domestic travel as the national economy stabilizes, according to the Global Business Travel Association. Of that estimated $273.3 billion, about $117.1 billion will be spent on group travel — meetings and conventions, conferences, incentive trips and the like. And $33.1 billion will be spent in the United States on international travel, the trade group says in a report preceding its annual convention, which will be held early next month in San Diego. No matter how you parse it, that’s a whole lot of spending for corporate travel managers and individual business travelers to evaluate and track. Another report is coming out this week, from Concur, the travel expense management company, that seeks to “shine a bright light on a big chunk of data” for business travel spending, said Robson Grieve, executive vice president for marketing. I had an early look at the Concur study, which examined individual travel expense accounts totaling $50 billion at 18,000 corporate clients last year. Among the findings I found most interesting: Travelers at small and midsize companies on average spent significantly more in every expense category — hotels, airfares, dining and entertainment — than those at large corporations. That trend is surprising, said Mr. Grieve, who suggested that it probably reflects more aggressive regional business activity by smaller companies scrambling for growth.

  • Determining Jurisdiction in Internet Defamation Cases: Insights on Latin America Eduardo Bertoni *
    Determining jurisdiction in Internet defamation cases: Insights on Latin America Eduardo Bertoni * Introduction Criminal law includes defamation among the range of proscribed conducts. The nomen juris attributed to related crimes in Latin America covers from libel and slander to contumely and other definitions which usually seek to protect "honor" as a legal interest, both in its objective (reputation) and subjective (self- esteem) dimensions. Irrespective of criminal law theories, we could say that including honor among the interests protected by the State's criminal law apparatus serves either to deter risk or harm to a legal interest or to reinforce –through the threat of criminal action– the value attached at a given time by a society to the relevant legal interest, by punishing conducts that result in risk or damage to it. 1 Meanwhile, civil law also provides a response to violations of the right to honor. In filing a civil action for defamation, the allegedly aggrieved party seeks a monetary compensation for injury to his or her likeness, honor, moral integrity or reputation. Notwithstanding the fact that jurisdictions differ in the causes of action for defamation and the limitations that they admit, it has been recognized in Latin America that moral damage arising from defamation can lead to an award of damages. However, the quantification of this concept poses several difficulties. The basis for both criminal and civil actions is always a form of speech. The form of this expression – written, oral or artistic– does not determine the legal consequences, although the scope of its dissemination may be one of the factors that should be considered, for instance, to establish the extent of the damage.
